Why the whole world is indeed wrong about Israel
The launch of a new book about how lethal lies came to drive a murderous narrative
I was delighted to take part this week in an event in Jerusalem to launch the devastating new book by Professor Richard Landes, Can the Whole World be Wrong? Lethal Journalism, Antisemitism and the Global Jihad. I previously wrote about the book here.
Joining me on the panel, in addition to Richard Landes, were Brig.Gen. (Rtd.) Yossi Kuperwasser, senior research fellow at the Jerusalem Centre for Public Affairs and head of the Intelligence Methodology Centre Research Institute at the Israel Intelligence Heritage and Commemoration Centre; and Adam Levick, co-editor of CAMERA UK (the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis).
You can watch the whole event below.
